Hiveserver2 is stuck in starting mode in cloudera

Having some trouble. Using Cloudera Manager 4.6.3 . The hiveserver2 role is stuck in the Role State of "Starting". The processes are currently down. I cannot stop, start, or delete. The hivemetastore is "Started". I can connect to hive, but not to hive2. I believe I am using PostgreSQL as the db.

Finally figured it out! The process was running, but the state was stuck in "starting". I am using PostgreSQL for Cloudera Metadata, and did the following steps:

Got Postgres Password:

sudo more /var/lib/cloudera-scm-server-db/data/generated_password.txt

Logged into Postgres:

psql -U cloudera-scm -p 7432 -h localhost -d postgres

List DB's and Tables:

list or \l: list all databases

Found a Database called SCM. Just figured that was the one.

Connected to SCM:

\connect SCM

List all tables in the current database:

\dt

Found a table called ROLES.

Ran the following:

update ROLES set configured_status = 'RUNNING' where configured_status = 'STARTING' and role_type = 'HIVESERVER2'

Went back to the Cloudera Management screen and Viola! Now I have control to stop/start/etc!
